CAN fight CANCER CELLS

The plant contains chemical compounds called saponins. These have shown to be effective for preventing and fighting cancer cells. Scientific validations have shown that yerba mate was able to kill cancer cells and reduce inflammation.

“ The cancer cell self-destructs because its DNA has been damaged,” Elvira de Meja explains. She and her scientists believe yerba mate benefits induce apoptosis and cancer cell death makes it a promising treatment option for all types of cancer. Not only yerba mate kill cancer cells, but they also reduce cellular inflammation. Inflammation can cause cancer’s onset and progression. Mate’s anti-inflammatory capabilities are one of the major reasons de Meja sees it as such a viable cancer-fighting agent.

CANCER CONCERNS

You possibly have heard that yerba mate may be the cause of certain cancers, but that only applies on certain cases (smoked yerba mate). Most of the world’s Yerba Mate is processed using a heavily smoked drying system that uses burning wood to dry the mate leaves. This drying method is known to produce a mate which contains (PAHs) Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons, chemicals shown to be carcinogens if consumed at high concentration.

Our Yerba Mate is 100% air dried through a process that use warm air instead of smoke. That drying system enable the leaves to be free of PAHs. This creates a safe, healthy and light tasting Yerba Mate.
